Abstract

This study reveals that the low interest among the younger generation in pursuing higher education remains a persistent issue in Talangkah Village. This situation is influenced by factors such as economic constraints, a lack of information regarding higher education and scholarships, and the distance to higher education institutions. The study aims to improve understanding of and access to information about higher education and the KIP-Kuliah (Indonesia Smart College Card) program. The study employed the Participatory Action Research (PAR) method, involving the community in problem identification, planning, implementation, and program evaluation. Activities were conducted through an outreach session titled "Higher Education and KIP-Kuliah Education for the Younger Generation" at SMKN 1 Kasongan, targeting students from Talangkah Village. Evaluation results from 20 participants indicate that the activity successfully enhanced their understanding of the importance of higher education, opportunities for further study, and the benefits of KIP-Kuliah as educational financial aid for students from underprivileged families. Participants also demonstrated a positive response and increased motivation to consider higher education as a future option. However, some participants still required further information regarding KIP-Kuliah eligibility requirements and application procedures. To ensure sustainability, a "Higher Education and KIP-Kuliah Information Corner" was established, involving community service (KKN) students, school officials, and village authorities. This program contributes to increasing the younger generation's knowledge and initial awareness regarding the importance of higher education while expanding access to educational information on a sustainable basis.
